BIS has a forthcoming SACD of Helvi Leiviska's orchestral music coming soon. It is "volume 1," so I guess at least one more is planned after this one.
I saw it listed on the HMV Japan website, and not being able to read Japanese, I can't tell what the pieces included are, but their Opus numbers are. 11, 27 and 30.
It includes the following:
Orchestral Suite No. 2, Op. 11
Symphony No. 2, Op. 27
Sinfonia brevis, Op. 30

Orchestra: Lahti Symphony Orchestra
Conductor: Dalia Stasevska
Just to be clear: this is on BIS, distributed by Chandos.
just went to the BIS web-site to get more details on this release and found the 'old' site seems to have disappeared and been replaced by a load of typical 'big label' marketing junk - no sign of a query field to find what to want. How useless (IMHO!) and how sad!!

Yeah I noticed that the other day. eClassical and other sites still have the same info though. Of course for while now they redirected you to eClassical if you wanted the booklet and sound samples, so the only thing that's really changed is cutting out the bis.se middle man.
Terrapon,
Tksd for the good advice - will-do.
Cheers
